Don't you think that the "foundation" should include a spell checker?
There are several opensource products out there that could be tapped
for inclusion in Mozilla. There are the ispell and aspell projects on
Linux, plus, there are opensource code bases for products that have
spell checkers, such as the OpenOffice.org project, the Abiword,
Kword, etc. projects.
To rant a little, I think there should be a Mozilla 1.0 release that
is an "end-user" application. It could broaden the use of the browser
by quite a bit. Netscape is just too slow in pushing out new
features/technologies that make it into Mozilla and not into Netscape
until their next major release. As soon as the Mozilla API's freeze,
I think there should be a 1.0 release (with a spell checker!).
Brian!
